oh, yeah, you can laugh about closing down yellowstone and maybe that's not the explosive thing. 270,000 jobs mostly in the west. i didn't hear that they have such a low unemployment rate that they don't give a darn. local communities at national parks lose $14 million per day. so that's the national park argument. let me go to the contractors. i represent the state of maryland where we have a lot of contractors. take goddard space agency, 3,000 civil servants that do everything from help run the hubbell telescope to refiguring out how we can fix the satellites through robots in the sky. but there are 9 -- excuse me -- 6,000 contractors. 6,000 contractors. some of them are small business, 8-a contractors working the way up. many of them -- some of them are women. many of them are veterans who started small to medium-size business. these people, if there is a government shutdown, will not get paid. hello, colleagues. this is not only going to happen in my state. this' going -- it's going to happen in your state. this was a major article in the "wall street journal" yesterday about what th

"or at least wait until monday to shut down the government." i get a lot of letters and calls reminding me what's at stake if some of our colleagues continue to put politics ahead of doing what's right. but i'll always remember that e-mail from missoula. madam president, even seven year olds expect us to get our job done. they expect us to work together to pass a budget. they expect us to work together to make responsible cuts. they expect us to make sure we don't put our government's entire economy on life support. and that's exactly what will nap some in congress let the government shut down. they'll fail all of us. if drawing a line in the sand becomes more important than working together, i think that's shame. of course, we can't afford the status quo either. we all know the problem. everyone wants to point fingers. i can spend my time pointing to those who thought it was a good time to put two wars we're fighting onto the taxpayers' credit card or tho
